The Kraylor homeworld was the capital planet of the Kraylor and was located in the Delta Quadrant, relatively near to the Beta Quadrant border. At least as of 2374, the Kraylor were involved in a conflict with the Annari Empire, and in that year the Annari erected a blockade around the Kraylor homeworld. Though a shield grid protected the planet from a direct attack, the planet was slowly choked to death because it was dependent on external sources for food and medical supplies, and it was almost impossible to get ships through the blockade in the following three years.
